9th Annual Vermont Cheesemakers' Festival Celebrates Local Producers July 16

The Vermont Cheesemakers Festival will mark its ninth annual appearance on the shores of Lake Champlain at the historic Coach Barn at Shelburne Farms on July 16, 2017, from 10 AM to 4 PM to celebrate the art of cheesemaking in Vermont. Attendees can meet cheesemakers and taste the cheeses of Vermont, enjoy the creations of artisan food producers, savor the fruits of wine, mead and cider production, and experience the skills of craft brewers and master distillers.

The festival has been chosen as a "Top Ten Summer Event in Vermont" by the Vermont Chamber of Commerce and was recently named as one of the "1000 experiences to have before you die" in the recent edition of "1000 Places to See in the United States and Canada Before You Die". This year, the event will include our returning platinum sponsors, Yankee Magazine, and the Vermont Dairy Promotion Council. For the first time, Cabot Creamery Cooperative will be a Platinum Sponsor of the Festival.  Gold sponsors include Shelburne Farms, Vermont Creamery, Grafton Village Cheese Company, Accutech Packaging, the Good Food Foundation, and Provisions International and new gold sponsor, Kenyon Grills International located in Clinton, CT.  New Silver sponsor include Ullmer's Dairy Equipment in Pulaski, WI.
